Case Results

Theft case resolved without attracting attention.

KU Student was charged with theft and minor traffic offenses in a local municipal court. After reviewing the evidence and discussing possible defenses and trial strategy, Client decided the best course of action was to quietly resolve the case with a diversion agreement, avoiding unwanted attention.

DUI dismissed due to thorough investigation by Stolte Law, LLC.

In a case where the only charge was DUI, officers failed to interview every witness to the alleged event. A witness indicated that client was sober upon arrival to her house and did not drink until after arriving. Somehow, the witness was not interviewed by police, so the fact did not appear in the police report. The prosecutor agreed to drop the DUI charge, without the need for a trial.

Prior Missouri DUI convictions cannot be used to increase sentences.

In a seminal Kansas DUI case, Attorney Adam Stolte argued at the Kansas Court of Appeals that some prior Missouri DUI’s cannot be used to enhance client’s sentence. For client, and others across Kansas, this resulted in reduced fines, reduced jail time, and reduced supervision. Attorney Adam Stolte regularly receives inquiries and referrals from attorneys to reduce their client’s DUI charges.

Careful comparison of videos with police reports showed several inconsistencies violating client's Constitutional rights. After preparing thoughtful motions with thorough supporting legal research, the prosecutor dismissed the case - without the need for a trial.

Fourth Amendment violation results in case dismissal.

The police report in this case glazed over the actual arrest of client. Even so, complete review of the officer’s chest-cam video showed a significant constitutional violation. Despite the apparent violation, the prosecutor refused to dismiss. After filing a motion to suppress illegally obtained evidence, Stolte Law, LLC questioned the officers on the stand and impeached their version of events. The court agreed that local police violated client's 4th amendment rights. ​ The prosecutor appealed the case, but we prevailed.
